To be or not to be? To live or to die on the vine? To be filled with passion and emotion, or to be safe, untried and not alive?
Scorpio. Speak to us of passion, of wanting, but not expecting.
Scorpio says:
Your answer is in the question. Let there be blood and guts in your wanting so that you will dare, so that you will stand, so that you will involve yourself, your heartiness, your essence.
The choice is obvious and the password is “dare”. If you can see it, you can be it. If you can see it, you are it. It’s up to you. It is your turn. Passion is your fuel. Passion is life. Passion is moving into that which matters.
Don’t stand by the shore and wait, unless the winds do not call and the waters do not beckon. But if the wind snaps your skirt, or lifts your tie like an unfurled flag; if the salty smell of the sea fills your sinuses, and the sun beckons, get into the vessel. Take the trip. The alternative is not an alternative.
Dare to dream. Langston Hughes said “If dreams die, life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly. An angel flies in your life tonight. The angels are encamped about you. You are that important.
If there is some bit of nonsense that you have to give up right now, let it go. Let it go and do not go with it. That’s what cleansing is all about. Let it go. Flush it. And stand refreshed.
You must be artful.
You must be artful, just as you must eliminate. You must eliminate regularly, so you must art regularly. You must love. You must give something your tender, devoted attention. You must be in touch with your heart because it is the great heart. You must give. You must offer. When I speak of art and heart, I speak of Saturn in Leo. Saturn in Leo might say, “I would love, offer, surrender. But it didn’t work out once or twice or far too many times. I would rather live on a flat line, than suffer another loss.”
And Saturn in Leo says. Love, then. Offer. Offer in full consciousness. Let your heart sing. Go there. Go exactly where you hurt and get back on. Get behind the wheel. Take hold of the reins.
Throw your head back. Laugh.
Dare to dream.
Hold the thought while it is yet only a whisper.
Hold the thought and the next step will reveal itself.
Follow the steps.
When a picture inserts itself in your head, don’t dismiss it it. The picture is an answer to your own earlier request.
Build the fire.
Build a constructive fire, a consecrated, dedicated desire, pursued persistently. Bring something good into the world. Bring in some beauty. Give something your mark, your stamp, your heart. Link being all that you can be with the desire to join with others to change the world for the better.
Wouldn’t you like to change the world? Of course you would. Well your life is your vote. Don’t stand on the sideline waiting for the brighter day. Be the brighter day. Be the way. Do your vital part.
